Keir Starmer's undemocratic imposition of candidates comes unstuck in Islington North as 72 members quit to campaign for Corbyn!
Right, so an absolutely massive story has broken today, in a possible sign of things to come under Keir Starmer’s leadership, if you can call it that, as 72 members of North Islington Constituency Labour Party have now quit in order to support Jeremy Corbyn and have done so in a brutal takedown of Starmer’s antidemocratic conduct, issuing a scathing joint letter stating saying that the imposition of candidates, the lack of consultation, the prevention from selecting their own candidate was too much and coming as this move does following the resignation of fifty Labour members over Faiza Shaheen being blocked from standing, and resignations from the party having happened up and down the country in other areas as well as a result of candidate impositions and arbitrary blocks being placed on favoured local candidates, Keir Starmer might be riding high in the polls and be on course for a parliamentary majority, but what exactly will be left of the Labour Party, which is collapsing at a grassroots level to a degree never before seen?
Right, so huge news breaking today and a massive blow to Keir Starmer’s hopes of installing a Labour loyalist off the back of 40 years of Jeremy Corbyn’s hard work, as 72 members of North Islington Constituency Labour Party or CLP, including a dozen members of the Executive Committee, an overwhelming majority of the executive who run the CLP, which will throw the Labour election campaign into disarray there and deservedly so in my view, have today issued a jointly signed letter of resignation telling Keir Starmer exactly what they think of him, his candidate Praful Nargund and the antidemocratic war he seems intent on waging against the membership itself. Words have not been minced. The letter reads:
‘A plea from resigning and former members of Islington North Labour Party: Vote for Jeremy Corbyn. Independent.
Dear voters of Islington North.
We have been proud members of Islington North Labour Party for many years. Together, we have campaigned on a wide range of issues from defending the local number 4 bus routes to saving the local hospital’s A&E. These campaigns have united members from all sides of our Party and we are proud of the collegiate atmosphere that we have created. In many ways, Islington North CLP was the genuine broad church that the Labour Party claims to be.
This year, we have been denied the right to choose our own candidate for the General Election. Not a single person in Islington North has had a say. We believe in democracy – and the people of Islington North deserve an MP who believes in democracy too.
Jeremy Corbyn has dedicated his life to this constituency. We hear on a regular basis from people how Jeremy has been there for them in their time of need, whether that is housing, education or anything else. He has always worked in partnership with our progressive Labour Council, both as a Labour MP and as an Independent MP. ..

►ABOUT ME:
Hi, I'm Damien Willey. I'm a former welder, but now I'm a writer, blogger, vlogger and presenter and interviewer with Socialist Telly (Please do go and visit what we all get up to on / socialisttelly )
I'm an unpaid carer for my disabled wife and daughter and as such we know all too well the difficulties that associated with that living in Tory Britain and I personally believe the answer lies in socialism.
This channel, along with my other social media act as outlets to push back against that, to demand better of our politicians and leaders, to pull apart the media spin that supports them and the way the UK is run and to give a voice, loud as mine is, to the voiceless.
